| Hello Monika,
I am the father of three boys in Chicago. They are aged 8,8 (twins) and 11.
Currently my boys attend a German Language school every Saturday here in Chicago. Although my family has been here in the USA since the 1700s, our family is origanally frm Germany. Unknown to many Germans is that the German Language is the fourth most spoken language in the USA and millions here speak it, primarily in the upper Midwest, Texas and Pennsylvania.
It is difficult to keep my boys motivated, but I think have actual penpals in Germany would be veryu rewarding for them. They love baseball, swimming and soccer. Their names are Alex, Andy and Thomas. Additionally Alex plays the piano, Andy plays the violin and Thomas plays the alto saxophone. We love to surf and live just off of Lake Michigan (yes, big waves!). We can also exchange email in German. My sons would write German and zour students could write English if that suits you.
Tschüß!
